AMRAP 12
10 bicep curls
10 bent over row
10 tricep kickback
30 lateral lunges
As many rounds / reps as possible in 12 minutes of this circuit. As per usual, feel free to add some stairs / walking / biking / rowing between rounds if desired.
For these arm strengtheners - I used my KB and alternated arms (bicep curls on R, then on L, then on to the bent over rows), but if you want more of a challenge, you can go straight through the 3 arm movements on one arm, and then switch to the other, before moving on to the lunges. Try to be deliberate with your movements and not rely on momentum. I used the same weight across the exercises, but definitely adjust as necessary so that you’re not compensating or losing form. For the bent over rows, I like to use a stagger stance, with my non-working arm on a chair / table / bench etc for stability. If you’re using a barbell (mine finally arrived! YAY! Not that I can really use it just yet, but that’s OK - soon enough!) then you can do pendlay style rows instead and skull crushers for the tricep strengthener.
I did these lateral lunges alternating legs. You can add an optional goblet hold if you want a little extra challenge to your arms and core. I am definitely past that stage - my low back gets so tired with any additional weight along my front!
Have a great day!
